About UK Fact Check Politics
We are dedicated to providing accurate information about UK politics and fostering real change through education and awareness.
Our Founder: Rustam
Born to refugee parents who fled the war in Afghanistan, Rustam grew up in the UK with a deep awareness of political issues. Frustrated by the deep-rooted inequality and poverty he witnessed, he became politically engaged at a young age.
Our Origin Story
In his final year of sixth form, unable to vote in the 2019 General Election due to his age, Rustam channeled his passion for political engagement into creating UK Fact Check Politics. What started as an Instagram account has grown into a powerful platform with over 743k, followers.
Our Mission
At UK Fact Check Politics, we:
- Fact-check politicians' claims
- Analyse party manifestos
- Provide daily news updates

Despite studying economics at the University of Southampton, Rustam continues to work tirelessly on UK Fact Check. We're excited about the potential for greater impact in the future and invite you to join us in this journey.
